| Magnepan 20.7 - Ten Feet or More Into a Room? My current room is 17.5w x 26L x 9h. I have the 20.7's angled in a bit with the tweeter ribbons to the outside (yes, this gives a very slightly less focused center image but it helps spread the sound field even further left amd right; I like the '... | |
| MSB Premium Quad Rate USB2 Module I am very interested in Tidal too. I am hoping that Aurender will have several demos at RMAF this year. Which Aurender are you using and how does that work? I am currently running a Mac Mini and using Audirvana software with a 2TB firewire data dr... | |
| MSB Premium Quad Rate USB2 Module Davt, thanks for the feedback. So in your experience it not only improves PCM performance but DSD as well? Curious, have you tried any 'native' DSD files yet; what did you think? | |
| Two or More Subwoofers? Castle Rock | |
| Two or More Subwoofers? Not sure, but a Magnepan has a considerable amount of panel surface area, especially the bass panels which are probably 75% of the total area. Being over 5,000 ft higher in the Denver area I assume that the density of air is lower meaning that it ... | |
| Two or More Subwoofers? My current room is 17.5w x 26L x 9h. That's 455 sq ft and 4,095 cu ft. I have two REL-328's and Magnepan 20.7's. My amps are the Carver Black Beauty 305's (approx 350 watts into 4 ohm Maggies). Dedicated room is in my basement.I am getting ready t... | |
| Two or More Subwoofers? I am currently using two REL-328's. Trying to decide if I show buy two more or sale the two and go with two bigger G-2's... | |
| Another Also, the Audio Research 150's will NOT get the job done unless your room is fairly small or you listen at very moderate levels (or both). | |
| Another Take a good look at the Carver Black Beauty 305's or maybe even the smaller Cherry 180's. I have tried MANY amps on my 3.6's, and now my 20.7's; you will not be dissappointed!The 305's drive my 20.7''s to Loud Levels in my larger than average room... | |
| Buy 24/44 Download or Rip CD HDtracks and Accoustic Sounds both sell 44.1/24 files; if I rip a CD of that same album, I get the same 44.1/24.... | |
| Tube rolling for EAR 912 Has anyone tried a third party remote for their 912? | |
| MSB Analog DAC experience Davt, did you receive your Analog DAC? How do you like it? | |
| Tube-amp for Magnepan? I have tried many, SS and Tubed...Use a pair of Carver Black Beauty 305's mono blocks - Six KT-120's per side or his updated BB 350's - six KT-150's per mono block.I use the 305's on my 20.7's; best sound that I have had in my 35 years in this cra... | |
| Polling Magnepan Users - Room Size Thanks for the feedback. In my current room the 20.'7's sit approx 7 feet into the room. To address the leanness in the bass I recently added two REL R-328 subs and this has been a significant improvement overall. The Maggies have always been supe... | |
| Best tube amp for electrostatic speakers Take a look at the Carver 350 Black Beauty mono blocks. The 350's use six KT-150's per side and can drive just about any speaker. The slightly older version of the Black Beauty's, the 305's uses six KT-120's per side. I use these amps on my Magnep... |
